BROWNING X-Bolt Western Hunter LR

Design and build quality

As a Bolt Action in the Browning family, the BROWNING X-Bolt Western Hunter LR is built around a heavy sporter contour barrel that stabilizes harmonics and improves inherent accuracy for follow-up shots. The rifle’s removeable radial muzzle brake allows shooters to control recoil and muzzle rise when needed, then revert to a standard muzzle profile for hunting areas with muzzle device restrictions. The extended bolt handle provides faster, more positive cycling—useful when wearing gloves or when operating from unconventional shooting positions.

Stock, fit, and ergonomics

The composite stock includes an adjustable comb system that lets the shooter set a precise cheek weld for scope alignment, critical for consistent head position during long-range shots. The Browning OVIX Camo finish provides field-concealing patterning while maintaining a durable exterior for hard use. Model options are listed as Various, indicating chambering and configurations to suit different mission profiles and shooter preferences; verify specific model and caliber when configuring your order. Price is $1010.99, a competitive figure for a feature-rich precision hunting rifle. View product details and pricing
